Andrea Pearson talks about the basics of how to get more followers on Twitter

1.Follow people who are more likely to follow you back

2.Use hash tags = # Use the hash tag followed by topics you like. For example: #writing

3.Re-tweet what people say. For example, you think something was funny so re-tweet

1.Don’t be too preachy. Instead, let people know what your life is like. Let them get to know you.

2.Be courteous: be nice to people. What she means is don’t send out a thousand tweets a day

3.Respond to people

4.Follow conversations other people have and follow people who you like to read, and don’t follow too many people at once
